Summary

Soldier。 Summoner。 Saint。 Alina Starkov’s power has grown, but not without a price。 She is the Sun Summoner—hunted across the True Sea, haunted by the lives she took on the Shadow Fold。 But she and Mal can’t outrun their enemies for long。

The Darkling is more determined than ever to claim Alina’s magic and use it to take the Ravkan throne。 With nowhere else to turn, Alina enlists the help of an infamous privateer and sets out to lead the Grisha army。

But as the truth of Alina's destiny unfolds, she slips deeper into the Darkling’s deadly game of forbidden magic, and further away from her humanity。 To save her country, Alina will have to choose between her power and the love she thought would always be her shelter。 No victory can come without sacrifice—and only she can face the oncoming storm。

Alright I honestly don't want to say that much so I'm doing bullet points today:- I love Nikolai Lantsov。 As I should。 - the middle 300 pages of this book were just。。。 nothing???- and then at the end everyone just (view spoiler)[ died??? (hide spoiler)]- tbh i do kind of like alina- but my question is why anyone ships darklina, when there is nikolina, or zoyalina, or genyalina, or EVEN MALINA- also side note i'm a (view spoiler)[ lesbian alina truther (hide spoiler)] and you should be too!okay Alright I honestly don't want to say that much so I'm doing bullet points today:- I love Nikolai Lantsov。 As I should。 - the middle 300 pages of this book were just。。。 nothing???- and then at the end everyone just (view spoiler)[ died???

Me ha gustado algo más que el primero。 Tiene más intriga y pasan muchas más cosas。 Ya vamos conociendo el mundo y a los personajes, aunque la autora sigue sorprendiendo en cada capítulo。 Y los últimos capítulos son alucinantes!!!!En realidad: 4,25/5⭐

I am hella confused yet hella excited to read the third and final book! Not sure why people love the Darkling so much, but okay。 I'm a Malina stan for life。 I am hella confused yet hella excited to read the third and final book!

I'm pleased to report that I'm still loving this series! Alina is, alas, still an annoying bore, but with so many amazing secondary characters, she's tolerable。 Hanging around with Nikolai was fun, and even in this series, he's my favorite character。 Tolya and Tamar were really interesting, too! If only we had gotten to spend more time aboard the Volkvony! The Darkling is still incredible, and I loved getting to see Zoya come a bit out of her mean girl phase。 She's still a mean girl at heart, th I'm pleased to report that I'm still loving this series!

I hate Mal。 He is annoying, obnoxious, and "needs to find a purpose。" He is a Aspen。 Other than that, the book was good, there was not anything surprising or anything sad or happy。 Even the betrayals did not seem like a big deal。 I only read this for the show because soc is amazing! And I'm binging it all today!!!!

Ok, it was a bit slow and Alina’s monologue is a little bit draining but the new characters that were introduced were fantastic and the world building was exceptional!! I’m starting to feel that the Darkling’s character is a little underdeveloped (hopefully more will be revealed in the final book) but I felt there was a lack of backstory as to why he’s the ‘villain’ which I think by this point we really should have had (at least a deeper insight into what’s already been laid down) his character Ok, it was a bit slow and Alina’s monologue is a little bit draining but the new characters that were introduced were fantastic and the world building was exceptional!!

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 Alina's journey is far from over。 The Darkling is still determined to use her。 Alina has her own plans, ones that include her making her own choices。 Mal and Alina frustrated me at times I just wanted to say talk to each other !!! But I do love the complicated nature of the Darkling and enjoyed Nickolai's entrance into Alina's path。 So many new characters and another fast moving story。 Alina's journey is far from over。 The Darkling is still determined to use her。 Alina has her own plans, ones that include her making her own choices。 Mal and Alina frustrated me at times I just wanted to say talk to each other !!!

“I've seen what you truly are," said the Darkling, "and I've never turned away。 I never will。 Can he say the same?”― Leigh Bardugo, Siege and Storm Although, this book was alot of drag but the ending was so beautifully rendered。 I am finally obsessed with the darkling。I really under-estimated him which I am regretting now。The darkling adds so much depth to the story and believe me, he alone saved this book a 3。5 stars。I dont like Nicole,there you have it。 “We are alike,” he “I've seen what you truly are," said the Darkling, "and I've never turned away。 I never will。 Can he say the same?”― Leigh Bardugo, Siege and Storm Although, this book was alot of drag but the ending was so beautifully rendered。 I am finally obsessed with the darkling。I really under-estimated him which I am regretting now。The darkling adds so much depth to the story and believe me, he alone saved this book a 3。5 stars。I dont like Nicole,there you have it。 “We are alike,” he said, “as no one else is, as no one else will ever be。”The truth of it rang through me。 Like calls to like。”― Leigh Bardugo, Siege and Storm 。。。more

This book took me over a month to finish。 I know。 It’s a long time。 I have to be honest, a lot of the time I was grasping for something that wasn’t there。 Maybe it was different characters, maybe it was a more interesting plot。 All I have to say is that it was pretty slow。 I can say that sometimes I was almost forcing myself to read this book。 While I don’t want this review to be all negative, it was lacking in substance that I got from the first book。 I do have to say that I love the new charac This book took me over a month to finish。 I know。 It’s a long time。 I have to be honest, a lot of the time I was grasping for something that wasn’t there。 Maybe it was different characters, maybe it was a more interesting plot。 All I have to say is that it was pretty slow。 I can say that sometimes I was almost forcing myself to read this book。 While I don’t want this review to be all negative, it was lacking in substance that I got from the first book。 I do have to say that I love the new characters we were introduced to。 I’m excited to see where Bardugo will take them。 I will say that I’m most excited for Nikolai (loml)。 I am definitely going to read Ruin and Rising, and I’m looking forward to reading another instalment to this wonderful world。 。。。more

The book was very simple so to speak。 It was a loop of the same things repeated through the chapters, good writing but it is lucky to be part of a series。 I did think Shadow and Bone was better。

Wow, was I not expecting that。 I did not enjoy this book。 It was a very "filler" book。。。Insurgent is a filler book, City of Ashes is a filler book, GLASS SWORD is a filler book。 Filler books are very predictable, a few things happen that you can just PREDICT。 And sadly, this was that。。。1) wow, our protag is SHOOK by what happened in the previous book。。。 they did not see it coming (we all saw it though, but that's a discussion for another time)2) wow, our protag is "not like other girls。" This wa Wow, was I not expecting that。 I did not enjoy this book。 It was a very "filler" book。。。Insurgent is a filler book, City of Ashes is a filler book, GLASS SWORD is a filler book。 Filler books are very predictable, a few things happen that you can just PREDICT。 And sadly, this was that。。。1) wow, our protag is SHOOK by what happened in the previous book。。。 they did not see it coming (we all saw it though, but that's a discussion for another time)2) wow, our protag is "not like other girls。" This was not a problem in Shadow and Bone, I don't know why, but this book made me *cringe*3) wow, a new character (I LOVE THAT NEW CHARACTER DON'T GET ME WRONG。 THEY WERE THE BEST PART OF THE BOOK, FIGHT ME。)4) wow, NOTHING happens。5) wow, I am annoyed by our protag。7) wow, the romance is going somewhere, BUT WAIT, IS IT REALLY? IS IT? *SQUINTS*8) wow, so nothing has happened in the last, I don't know 300 pages, so let's see how MUCH can happen in the last 2 chapters。9) PLOT TWIST。10) Yay! I DON'T FUCKING CARE ANYMOREi am more disappointed in this than I am in myself。i will say that Leigh Bardugo has had to introduce many plot points, but this book, this ain't it chief。The 2 stars are for Nikolai Lanstov, and no one else。 。。。more

I'm still enjoying the series, but I wish that we got a little more time with some of the side characters。 I assume that's intentional to keep you in Alina's paranoid mindset? The second half felt like almost a completely different book, which was a bit weird looking back。 I'm still enjoying the series, but I wish that we got a little more time with some of the side characters。 I assume that's intentional to keep you in Alina's paranoid mindset?

The plot twist and political intrigue had me railing! And Nikolai。 That’s it。 He gets this whole line as he was my favorite part of this book。

Early Thoughts:- total page-turner, 13 pages in and the action starts and doesn't really let up。- characters start getting a lot more interesting and developed, especially the Mal/Alina/Darkling dynamics。- there's a lot of Russian-esque names being thrown about, a lot of the time I was trying to remember a character that ended up being not important to the plot。- I read Six of Crows prior to the Shadow and Bone series and I can see clearly how diversity was lacking, however, I find it forgivabl Early Thoughts:- total page-turner, 13 pages in and the action starts and doesn't really let up。- characters start getting a lot more interesting and developed, especially the Mal/Alina/Darkling dynamics。- there's a lot of Russian-esque names being thrown about, a lot of the time I was trying to remember a character that ended up being not important to the plot。- I read Six of Crows prior to the Shadow and Bone series and I can see clearly how diversity was lacking, however, I find it forgivable considering this is Bardugo's debut series and she improved, later on。- I adore Nikolai's character a lot, he is easily one of Bardugo's better characters and you can see how she carried this into Six of Crows。- the ending was quite rushed I felt and could have begun sooner! But I wasn't expecting what happened, to happen, so it was exciting all the same。 。。。more

A lacklustre three。Why is everyone simping over Alina, who is the dullest character of the series, yet all the boys are head over heels for her?Why is everyone so mean to Mal? He’s not bad。I’m willing to pay Nikolai’s medical bills, because he broke his back carrying this book。Not much happened and yet everything happened?Stop using love triangles。
